Google finally makes Nexus 5, its official Android phone, and the all new Nexus 7 available in the Indian market. They can now be found on Google’s Play store.

The 16GB handset of Nexus 5 is priced at Rs 28,999 and the 32GB at Rs 32,999. The new Nexus 7 with full HD screen with the storage capacity of 16GB has a Wi-Fi version that sells for Rs 20,999. Its 32GB model costs Rs 23,999. The same version also comes with support for LTE (cellular data connection) and is priced at Rs 27,999.

The retail price of Nexus 5 has been kept a little higher. The 16GB model costs Rs 29,999 while the 32GB version is available at Rs 33,999. Costs associated with retail have resulted in the Rs 1,000 margin. You can register with the Google Play store and use a credit card to buy the Nexus phone of your choice.

The Nexus 5 handset has a 2.26 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 quad-core processor, a 2GB RAM, a 4.9 inch screen with 1080P resolution, 16 or 32GB storage capacity, a 1.3MP front camera, an 8MP primary camera with optical image stabilization and a 2300 mAh battery. Put together by LG, it comprises latest hardware, and yet comes at a lower price than the LG and Galaxy models of the same range. Weighing around 130 grams, it uses Android 4.4 or Kit Kat, the most upgraded version of Android.

The true brilliance of Nexus handsets lies in their software. Both Nexus 5 and 7 are supported by the unmodified version of Android. They are the fastest Android devices available as the Android operating system is perfectly adjusted in them. Since they are serviced by Google itself, the Nexus handsets come with guaranteed regular updates for a minimum of 18 months without any delay for every new feature that Google comes up with, a benefit that is not available in any other Android device.
